Hop in the old jalopy...
Originally part of the movie Make Mine Music, this cartoon was released later on its own as a theatrical short. This was a sheer delight from start to finish. It's a creative, energetic cartoon with great Benny Goodman music. The gist of it is that we watch as a pencil draws some 1940s teens gathering together at a malt shop to dance to big band music. It's a very fun short that put a big smile on my face. Surprisingly, it's even got some sex appeal as the shapely teenage girl undresses in silhouette, showers, and towels off with her bare back to us. Pretty risqué stuff for a cartoon made in 1946. It's one of my favorite parts of Make Mine Music. See the entire movie if you can. If not, seek this particular short out and smile a few minutes of your life away.
